Hello everyone,

I am new to posting to this forum but have been learning so much from reading. What a great resource! I would like to ask for opinions on this 1873 Sweden 1 Ore which is a bronze one-year variety.

Is the streaking considered woodgrain? There seems to be minor striation on the reverse as well.

Notice the slanted "L" in the engraver's mark? There are known varieties of the engraver's initials (some have periods, some don't) but I was told this slanted "L" may be another variety.

Finally - grade (and value if you know?) I would like to see what others think so I can test myself. This is from a large inherited collection and I've been studying up on coins for several months.

Thank you!

Unless there is an established body of knowledge on the varieties these which we can access, varieties don't mean much,
interesting though it may be.
This is not the 'SVFRIGES' error coin.

VF 25, Sheldon.

For a retail value, go to NGC World Coin Values.

Thank you very much! Do you have any thoughts on the streaking? It seems to be mostly restricted to the inner portion of the coin (not the collar part). Would this be an alloy streak?

I would give it a grade of VF-20.

At the grade that this coin is in, I would have no problems at all with the streakiness.
